PeterPan agony auntHey -- just one comment here... you mentioned moving in together -- cool for you guys!! ...but, you did say that he's 17. In the States, that would be a problem. I'm sure Canada has laws similar to that (or at least some law that states when a person is considered an adult). I mention this to you because I don't want to see you get into trouble. Yeah, age is just a number, but in some cases, it's a number that can get you into trouble... might be safer to wait until he's 18 before you live together...

rcn agony auntI think if you want to be with him, why hide the truth. Hiding the truth says their is something to be embarrassed by.
